Ds-2019

 

The Certificate of Eligibility for the J-1 Trainee Visa is the DS-2019 Form.
Without a DS-2019 form a J-1 visa cannot be granted! Do not apply for a J-1 visa without having DS-2019 form because your visa application will be rejected or you will be told by the US embassy or consulate that you need a DS-2019 form. When you apply for the J-1 Visa at a U.S. consulate or embassy, you must submit the original DS-2019 Form along with your other application materials. The DS-2019 Form does not guarantee that you will actually receive the J-1 Visa. It merely serves as proof that a Department of State-designated visa sponsor supports your visa application. Each DS-2019 Form is registered through the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) of the U.S. Department of State. The DS-2019 Form is protected by a barcode, unforgeable and cannot be transferred to another person.
